well, usually i would just say: Hey, it's alpha! And even more, it's experimental! But in your guyses case, i am not sure... ...aww, what the heck: IT'S ALPHA! IT'S EXPERIMENTAL! The reasonable cause to limit the direct chat lies in at least one of the upper mentioned statements. Choose wisely! seriously, did it come to your mind that it might be a bug/work in progress/unintentional error/weekend dabslashness? just calm down everybody and switch to stable

i second that facepalm :facepalm:

I noticed that the issue with meele weapons switching to something else might NOT be related to any specific combination of items but to the serverload... On almost empty servers, every melee action and also every item change goes very smoothly (without lag or delay) whereas it seems on a full server different inputs getting delayed and in a way seem to queuing up until it comes to an unintentional switch of items. I'm not sure though because i keep crashing a lot but i did try to reproduce this issue shortly after server restarts when most players have not connected yet and everything worked just fine

yea you are right... i failed :( don't feed me to the zeds pls *runs away crying*

YO Hicks! :P Thanks for taking part in these forum discussions. Please don't get fed up with flamers and such cause even if they seem to be the loudest, the majority of us understands the way alpha works and we really appreciate any info or clearification you guys can give us. keep up the good work regards, your fanboy robophant :P

Uhm what do you mean? I just wanted to point out this vid because he is talking a lot about the current stable/experimental status and also about stuff like sound (doors etc.), zombie AI and lots of other stuff regarding the latest experimental release. I noticed that it only had about 430 views on dev-tracker so i thought it would be nice to draw a bit more attention to that vid. Did i do wrong? :blush:

Worth watching the whole thing: Dean Hall doing Q/A about development at PAX Prime: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/210518-pax-prime-2014-rocket-dayz-development-so-far/ Srsly, you have to love this guy :)

Rocket called the current state of sounds their "poor cousin" - I really think the whole sound engine will be re-done soon I get the same issue with all melee weapons - I think it's somehow related to the stuff you have in your quickbar. In my case, when I am using my fireaxe it randomly switches to number 5 in my quickbar - no matter if i have a pipsi or another gun on this slot

^this? i can't read it :/

oops, never said thanks, so: THANKS! :)

awww, come on, stop it please

whoa, that's almost the whole internet :o My steam just updated 1.3 GB this morning but i am not sure if that's because of the last exp patch or just because i didn't play for a week or so...

hell no, a well adjusted human being would take all that money from alpha sales and start a new life in some sunny paradise instead of having ppl rant about bugs all day long ;)

fair enuff

any update notes for new exp patch? can't find any... where to look?

uhm, any update notes for exp? can't find anything so far... where to look?

I'm hiding in the woods so they can't wipe me <_<

Hey what? Bear Grylls can kick Les Stroud's butt any time! btw, what makes you say that? Just curious.

How about the dev team asks Bear Grylls about all that survival stuff. He will tell them if one dies after 30 minutes without eating beanz or sitting in the rain for 30 seconds :p Anyway, i am sure all that is now just an issue of tweaking and balancing - I really doubt that, in the finial game, you will die from getting wet or not eating for 30 minutes. So I hope...

Can't wait for the Derringer... lol Now all we need is a paddle steamer casino on a river :p

so we should be grateful? just askin' :P

that's exactly the point - i can't tell... Since they keep spreading their information all over the place i always get the feeling that i am missing stuff... Such as 'will there be a fix for the latest game-breaking changes and if so, when?'

any news anywhere? sorry for asking that stupid question but i really refuse to search the whole internet just because they seem not to be able to accumulate their information within this 'OFFICIAL FORUM' (that really annoys the freaking hell out of me)

In Soviet Russia zombie is aggroed by YOU!

ahhh now i get it: it's Alpha! And Alpha means work in progress... ahahaahaa ok ok and i wuz thinking i paid 20bucks for an already finished game... Really, you guys got me there. And i was all like "wtf this crap does not do what it says on the box" and now i notice that there is no box and i did not read it... Everything seems so much more clear to me. In fact, everything starts to make sense now. Makes me want to hug a Zed big time! Thank you guys, you've enlightened me so freaking hard that my eyeballs started to burn like a freaking road-flare. Now i demand deans beans for finally getting it! gimme some more! ;)
